Pet tracking collars via GPS and GSM

The unique pet tracking system is an universal and completly new technology for finding, pursuing or tracking your dog: A GPS receiver and a GSM modem with special software is incorporated into the dog collar. Allows you easily and remotely monitoring the location of your dog via your cell phone/mobile phone anywhere in the world with suitable GSM coverage. Two versions are available:

pet tracking GPS collar (250 g weight, without collar belt, belt included into the price)
pet tracking GPS backpack (200 g weight) to fit on a harness

The principle: You simply call the telephone number of the pet tracking collar with your handy /mobile phone /cell phone. The GPS receiver of the collar, estimates the position of the dog and sends the coordinates immediately as SMS (Short Message service) over the Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) directly on your mobile phone display. The accuracy of the positioning amounts to the average less than 15 meters.

The pet tracking system works if the satellite antenna on top of the collar/backpack is able to find signals from at least 4 satellites and if the area where the dog is moving is coverd by GSM network (no other phone network service works!!). Figure 1 and 2 shows the pet tracking collar.
